Rogue waters

A Slunyaev, I Didenkulova, E Pelinovsky - Contemporary physics, 2011 - Taylor & Francis
In this essay we give an overview on the problem of rogue or freak wave formation in the
ocean. The matter of the phenomenon is a sporadic occurrence of unexpectedly high waves …

Physical mechanisms of the rogue wave phenomenon
